Below is a link to some hard stats (granted from PoP era, but still a lot closer to 1999 than live is now). The quote and link below are from a much more exhaustive post
here.
Aeol, the post above has a lot of classic-era evidence beyond the piece below, although it is not hard numbers - more what Verant said they had done and how they had implemented things.

4 - Also, for the following *limited* test, which was unfortunately PoP-ERA :/, the data indicates the following...
With a 305 cha, and then, a 130 cha - and everything else that is relevant unchanged...
1 - Charm lasts ~10% longer with a 305 cha vs. 130 cha.
2 - Charm cast is completely RESISTED, MUCH more often with a lower cha (this surprised me).
3 - The guy's conclusion that #1 above corresponds to "almost no effect" is bogus imo. 10% is huge over time.
